Congrats budagboy2 just take care when you're old enough to drive it carefully and not wreck it.
Another silly question though, what does your dad do for a living or for a ferrari F50

You Will find that an incredible number of F50's are very low millage, and the odd one which is really driven will have a decent amount. I know of a few companys in Italy who just bought F50's and put them in glass boxes, never driven, "investment" as they call it.
Dude....you must promise for hi-res pics man, in a nice scenic location

I can't understand these people who buy purely from an investment standpoint - I am referring to the previous owner here ... how can you just drive 200 miles over 9 years. I bet the owner would have forgotten what it would be like to drive on the open road - it must have happened years back...
I put 1000 miles on my new car within the first week - In fact I think I put on 100 miles on it on the first day - not bad considering I got the car at 6:30 pm and I drove it till 10pm that night.
I agree you can't treat most Ferraris like daily drivers - I am not expecting someone to put in 10000 miles a year or so. But around 2000-3000 miles a year is not unreasonable to ask for, is it?
The problem with most of these garage queens with low miles on it is that they suffer from lack of use through:
- cracking and corrosion of rubber lines,etc
- corrosion of water radiators through coolant contamination, etc.
The garage queens all look nice and shiny from outside but are not that great inside.
Budagboy, hopefully you had a good PPI to make sure that car was in a good shape. Also I hope that you will put some miles on that stallion...

Yeah its fine, the car was run every now and then to make sure its was good. and the oil was changed every year. And now at the shop every liquid is being changed out and new ones put in, just to be safe.

These pics are briliant. Unbeliveble. And only 200 miles. I belive it can be F50 with the lowest miles driven. Ofcourse second after the one in the Ferrari museum. Congratulations

Thats an amazing looking F50. But i think that the cars should be driven, thats what they were built to do. Its really clean looking. And whoever had it before must have a TON of $$$. Did u see the cars in the background? 360 Challenge Stradale, damn nice car. But please, drive it, the car should be driven not stared at.
